AdvertisementUkrainians are putting machine guns first designed in the US at the end of World War I on the back of pickup trucks to try to shoot down Russian drones and spy planes. Soldiers in Ukraine's 117th Territorial Defense Brigade are using guns, including the M2 Browning, to try to take down Russia's Shahed drones, the Kyiv Independent reported. The M2 was used by American forces in World War II, and is still used by some today, but it was initially developed in 1918, the last year of World War I.
